Red Sox pitching prospect Devin Futrell has been named the Carolina League Pitcher of the Week for the week of April 6-12, Minor League Baseball announced on Monday. Futrell was nearly perfect in his first start (second appearance) of the young season in Low-A Salem’s series finale against Wilson on Sunday. The 23-year-old left-hander allowed … Continue reading "Red Sox’ Devin Futrell named Carolina League Pitcher of the Week"
After taking two-of-three from the St. Louis Cardinals, the Red Sox are 6-9, just two games out of first place in the AL East. Ditto a Wild Card spot. Their run differential is zero. The offense has scored 62 runs, third in the division after Tampa Bay (70) and New York (65). The pitching is […]
Fenway Sports Group has already drawn ire in recent years for, amongst other things on a very non exhaustive list: caring more about profits than winning, selling the most expensive “experience” in baseball rather than a winning team, caring more about profits than the culture of the team, shipping away homegrown leaders to save a […]
Worcester: W, 8-5 (BOX SCORE) Allan Castro, an outfielder who’s been moving up Boston’s organizational ladder at the age of 22, made waves in the series finale against Columbus (Guardians AAA) as his six RB’s on two home runs, including a grand slam, lifted the WooSox to a win. The grand slam made the game […]
If there’s anything that I learned over the past week of watching the Red Sox, it’s that baseball can—believe it or not—be fun! God, remember what it was like to actually enjoy this team’s play? After many in Red Sox Nation (myself included) started to worry about the trajectory of the 2026 season, Boston has […]
Hello and happy Monday, folks. Hope your weekend went well; I was able to wear a t-shirt for the first time outside since, like, 2011. The Red Sox will be going for their first three-game winning streak of the season tonight in the land of 10,000 lakes, as the Minnesota Twins will be hosting us […]
Last Week’s Results Division Standings Last Week Top Pitching Performance of the Week It hasn’t been a week to remember for, really, anyone on the Brewers or their performance as a team. Jacob Misiorowski did have an impressive start in which he struck out 10 Red Sox in just 5 1/3 innings, but he walked […]
White Sox pitchers these days have to feel something like the cavalry riders of Lord Tennyson’s vivid description of the Charge of the Light Brigade: Galloping hopelessly into a unrepentant line of cannonfire (or Cannon-fire, in today’s case) knowing that offensive support is minimal and death is more or less certain. The Kansas City Royals […]
The Red Sox have only six wins this season. We’re not dealing with a large sample size. Still, today felt like the “easiest” win of the season. The offense jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the first inning with a home run off the bat of Willson Contreras and never looked back. They were […]
Jordan Walker continued his torrid start to the 2026 season, but Andre Pallante had a disappointing start while Brayan Bello was impressive as the Boston Red Sox clobbered the St. Louis Cardinals 9-3 Sunday afternoon. The Red Sox didn’t wait long to get on the board as former Cardinal Willson Contreras hit a two-run homer […]

The St. Louis Cardinals will try to win the series versus the Boston Red Sox Sunday afternoon after a disappointing end to Saturday night’s game. According to MLB.com, Andre Pallante will start for St. Louis while Brayan Bello will take the mound for Boston. Game is scheduled to be broadcast on Cardinals TV. First pitch […]
The Milwaukee Brewers have had a rough week. After wrapping up their third consecutive series win last weekend in Kansas City, Milwaukee moved to 8-2 with a series-opening win in Boston on Monday. Since then, however, they’ve lost four straight. In those four losses — two to the Red Sox and two to the Nationals […]
There was a lot of talk about running it back this offseason. After a frustratingly brief trip to the Elysian Fields of the playoffs, the fans, writ broadly, wanted change. Few, if any, would’ve wanted a change in Jesús Luzardo, though. His first season in red pinstripes (and blue/black gradient thing; not to fear, City […]
During Saturday’s win in St. Louis, the Red Sox scored a season high seven runs. So with that established, let me stop and ask you a question: What player in a Boston uniform was most responsible for this offensive outburst? Perhaps it was Willson Contreras, who went 2-4 with 3 RBI against his former team. […]
Thank the baseball GODs for that ninth inning. The Red Sox came into the final frame with a tenuous one-run lead, after Garrett Whitlock gave up a solo shot to Jordan Walker in the bottom of the 8th. Trevor Story led off with a walk—something that hasn’t been a big help to the Red Sox […]
The Cardinals entered the night with a robust 8-5 record while the Red Sox were trying to avoid their 10th loss of the young season. The game was broadcast on Fox so we were given some Smoltz announcing action, which could be described as a mix of lackluster and uninformed. Kyle Leahy was smooth and […]
A Saturday national game, is this the pressure the Red Sox need right now? We at least see a little more normal of a lineup with Roman back in—maybe being the DH will let him focus on one thing at a time and his bat is more important right now. Can the Red Sox stop […]

The latest news on the Houston Astros and from around MLB: Tatsuya Imai is having trouble adapting to life in MLB at a time his team really needs him to be the star he’s shown he can be in Japan: In the meantime, Christian Vazquez will remain Imai’s personal catcher: Is there an injury concern […]
Tough to plate 11 and lose, but that was last night’s game. The good news is we planned for a Johnny Wholestaff affair, whereas the Boomers used their 2nd best starter. Wyatt “Ice Town” Nadeau needs to win the Mayoral election on the mound today for us to take this much needed home series. On […]
According to Jon Heyman, the Mets will call up Craig Kimbrel before today’s game against the Athletics. Kimbrel, a 16-year veteran who was an All-Star with the Braves, Phillies, Cubs, and Red Sox, signed a minor league deal with the Mets in January. Kimbrel is currently fifth all time with 440 career saves, just ahead […]
Worcester: W, 8-5 (BOX SCORE) Jake Bennett pitched a really solid game, going into the sixth, keeping his ERA under 1 despite allowing his first earned run of the season, striking four out and allowing just two hits. But, that wasn’t the real story on Friday night against Columbus (Guardians AAA). Tsung-Che Cheng started his […]
Ladies and gentleman, James Wood is all the way back. After a rough second half and a concerning first couple series, the big fella is back to absolutely destroying baseball. I have to say, I’ve got to eat some crow on this. I said the Nats had a James Wood problem, and it turns out […]
The San Diego Padres did not start the season well at home in their first six games versus the Detroit Tigers and San Francisco Giants, facing excellent starting pitching and showing an anemic offense, the Friars went 2-4 at home. The road trip to Boston to face the Red Sox for their home opener also […]
